Double-A San Antonio's Chase Headley missed the cycle by a single in Sunday's game.
Headley is batting .350/.431/.605 in 200 at-bats. There were big questions entering the season about whether he'd hit for enough power to be a major league third baseman, but he's looking like a probable regular now. The Padres may want to try Kevin Kouzmanoff in the outfield next spring as a possible way to get Headley into the lineup.

Hey if they think he's going to make the leap to the big's next year he better get some rep's in AAA now......might as well be in the OF since thats what we need.....unless they are going to toss Kouz to the wolves next year in the hopes that he can make the transition at the ML level.....

If you're not apart of their clique they will cry !!!

In alll liklihood Headley will start 2008 as the 3b for the Portland Beavers.

That would make sense........when it was said he could compete for the 3bag job next year and Kouz would get bumped to the OF.......it seems pretty foolish.......but everyone seemed to go with it

wait... when was it said that chase would be competing with kouzmanoff next year?

edit: i read the rotoworld snippet as, maybe get him a few games in the OF during the spring to just take a look. i would think that if they really considered having him switch to the OF, they would send him to a winter league and have him work it out there. not during a small handfull of games during spring training...
